The optimisation of biomimetic scaffold fabrication for the controlled release of Osteogenic factors for bone tissue regeneration
(Technological University of the Shannon: Midlands Midwest, 2023-08)Bone tissue defect is a rising global concern and is one of the leading causes of morbidity and disability in patients. Bone regeneration treatments that demonstrate all key characteristics for successful bone healing: ... -
Performance attenuation and recovery in Gaelic games
(Technological University of the Shannon: Midlands Midwest, 2022-07)Background: Gaelic games match-play involves players undertaking frequent and irregular anaerobic efforts interspersed with low-intensity aerobic activity, while being regularly exposed to physical contact during ... -
A policy language for context-aware access control in zero-trust network
(Technological University of the Shannon: Midlands Midwest, 2023-06)Evolving computing technologies such as cloud, edge computing, and the Internet of Things (IoT) are creating a more complex, dispersed, and dynamic enterprise operational environment. New security enterprise architectures ... -
The psychology of musculoskeletal injury in elite and sub-elite Gaelic footballers
(Athlone Institute of Technology, 2021-01)Background: Gaelic football participation is associated with an inherent risk of musculoskeletal injury eliciting physical and psychological consequences. However, there is a current dearth of awareness of the psychology ... -
A quality of experience evaluation of an immersive multimedia speech & language application
(Athlone Institute of Technology, 2020-08)Recent advances in technology have supported multimedia experiences to become more interactive and immersive. Traditional multimedia devices aimed to capture user attention through content rich visuals presented on ... -
A quality of experience evaluation of augmented reality and haptic feedback in a low-cost gait analysis system
(Athlone Institute of Technology, 2020-06)Gait analysis is a technique that is used to understand movement patterns and, in some cases, to inform the development of rehabilitation protocols. Traditional rehabilitation approaches have relied on expert guided feedback ... -
A quality of experience evaluation of text and 3D instruction formats in augmented reality applications
(Technological University of the Shannon: Midlands Midwest, 2023)Augmented reality (AR) is an emerging technology that has significant potential as a solution for novel procedure assistance and repeatable procedure training. Instructions are a method to communicate how to perform a ... -
Real-time processing of I-LOFAR data using signal and image-based artificial intelligence/machine learning methods
(Technological University of the Shannon Midlands Midwest, 2023-08)Solar flares discharge up to 1025J of magnetic energy into the solar atmosphere and are often linked with high-intensity radio emissions known as Solar Radio Bursts (SRBs). SRBs are commonly found in dynamic spectra and ... -
A risk assessment-based control strategy to formulate a potent, efficacious, and non-invasive topical onychomycotic dosage form
(Technological University of the Shannon: Midlands Midwest, 2021)This project involves the development of a strategy to formulate a novel dosage form with modified coconut oil (MCO) as the active pharmaceutical ingredient to treat onychomycosis caused by T. rubrum and C. albicans. ... -
Studies on the novel effects of feeding non-thermally treated honeybee gathered pollen on the colony stability and outputs of commercially-reared bumble bees ( Bombus terrestris) for pollination services
(Technological University of the Shannon: Midlands Midwest, 2023-05)Pollination is a vital resource, carried out mainly by animals, which without could threaten food security on a global scale. Of the agricultural crops that are produced globally, animal pollination is responsible for ... -
The suitability of vegetable fibres for the reinforcement of concrete
(Technological University of the Shannon: Midlands Midwest, 2023)The use of vegetable fibres as a sustainable alternative to non-natural fibres for reinforcing concrete was investigated in this research. For plant-based fibres, previous studies have identified issues such as the ... -
A versatile monitoring technique for real-time protein activity tracking within cellular and biomimetic scaffold environments
(Technological University of the Shannon: Midlands Midwest, 2023-07-12)High biological noise is intrinsic within biological systems, and this poses critical challenges to the in-situ detection and measurement of biomolecular and protein activities important to advancing approaches to ...
